Chapter Summary
The others in the Human Investigation Bureau dared not get involved, so the matter fell to Liu Ning. Regardless of what the other party was thinking, if they didn't explain everything clearly, Liu Ning wouldn't do it. Liu's current strength is enough to solve everything." Miss Julie was showering Liu Ning with praise, but Liu Ning didn't even want to listen.
Although Miss Julie spoke openly and honestly, Liu Ning was no child and understood what was going on. Don't be fooled by her praise; she was just using him. If he lost his value, she could kick him out at any time. That was the situation. The others in the Human Investigation Bureau dared not get involved, so the matter fell to Liu Ning. If he didn't intervene, the Human Investigation Bureau would likely let it go. What would happen in three to five years would depend on humanity's fate. If his fate wasn't good enough, this matter could shake the very foundations of humanity. While Liu Ning wasn't exactly a paragon of virtue, he would never allow such a thing to happen.
Miss Julie produced a photograph. The old man in the photo was Dr. Ito. When the Fusang Martial Arts School was destroyed, Dr. Ito escaped with the help of the school's members. However, the Human Investigation Bureau wasn't going to let him get away with it, so they recaptured him and obtained a considerable amount of information from him. This deeply spurred the higher-ups. Without this information, they probably wouldn't have even considered doing this. It was because they saw such a vast potential profit that these people developed their own ideas. They were willing to do anything in this kind of situation, including things they shouldn't have done. Only Liu Ning could clean up the mess.
"He's just an ordinary old man. Do you think I don't know the strength of your Human Investigation Bureau? Within the capital city, your strength is the greatest. If it were in other cities, there might be some things you couldn't do, but within the capital city, there's nothing you can't do. That's why I'm suspicious. If you really wanted to find someone, you could probably find that person very quickly. There's no need for you to go through all this trouble to find me. There are probably other things on your mind. Why don't you tell us everything? That way, we can cooperate sincerely. If you always have a lot of questions in your mind, your efficiency will definitely decrease a lot. You should understand this better than I do. Honesty is what we should do."
Liu Ning pushed the photos back. What Liu Ning said was a serious matter. Regardless of what the other party was thinking, if they didn't explain everything clearly, Liu Ning wouldn't do it. He wasn't crazy; if he fell into this trap, who knew what the future held? In this situation, Liu Ning was very clear about what the other party was up to. Even if they wanted him to jump into this trap, they had to explain everything clearly. If they didn't explain it clearly, who would bear the future losses? Although he agreed to help, they were about to enter the ancient ruins. If the entry into the ancient ruins was affected, who would compensate them? It had to be explained clearly.
"Then I'll be frank. Mr. Liu's suspicions are absolutely valid. I'm not just asking Mr. Liu to find this person; we also have other ideas. We hope Mr. Liu can eliminate this person. If we can eliminate this person, some core data will not be able to come out. No matter how much those people invest, if they want to move forward with this project, it will take at least one or two years. In one or two years, the whole situation may have changed. This is also an important reason why we asked Mr. Liu to come out. If our Human Investigation Bureau had caught this guy, we don't know how to resolve this matter. If we really killed him, we might offend many people in the higher-ups. But Mr. Liu is different. Mr. Liu's current strength is enough to solve everything."
Miss Julie was showering Liu Ning with praise, but Liu Ning didn't even want to listen. "Isn't this just pure nonsense?" he thought. "What do you mean I'm not afraid of any of this? Am I made of steel?" How could he not be afraid? When these things happen, the impact is the same for everyone. But Liu Ning was already halfway down the cliff; even if he wanted to get back up, it wouldn't be easy. That's why Liu Ning had to get up properly. In this state, no matter what these people were thinking, he had to get this done. As for how it would turn out, that wasn't something he should worry about now. The rest would have to be dealt with gradually. Everyone understood this.
The two didn't dwell on the issue any longer, as they both knew it was pointless. So, Miss Julie booked a private room. It wouldn't be appropriate to discuss it in the main hall, and Zhao Lele was already asleep in Liu Ning's room, so it wasn't suitable to talk about it there either. Liu Ning could handle this himself. If Zhao Lele were involved, given her personality, she certainly wouldn't let something so amusing go unpunished, and many people would be implicated. Zhao Wudi had been very kind to him, and they couldn't drag her into such a trap. Besides, they weren't that kind of person, so they would bear whatever came their way. Liu Ning was now a powerful figure, and they couldn't expect him to stand up for himself in everything; that wouldn't make sense.
Based on Miss Julie's account, Liu Ning basically understood the situation. It wasn't that they lacked ability; in fact, they had attempted to capture the guy and had some intelligence. However, the guy moved too quickly, making it unlikely to catch him in a short time. Because of this, they had come up with many solutions after these events, but they had only expanded to a specific area. Just like Liu Ning's previous capture, the guy was in that area, but none of them could handle him, so they had to ask Liu Ning for help. Another point was that they weren't afraid of retaliation, which was also what those people were thinking. It all depended on how Liu Ning handled the matter.
